Abstract
A novel fault detection and ride-through method for the three-phase 4-Leg Inverter (3Phi4L Inverter) used in off-grid applications is addressed in this paper. Open circuit and short circuit faults of the power devices located in the 3 Phi 4 mathrm{~L} Inverter have been theoretically analyzed. Hence, the fault detection and converter protection strategy has been implemented using a combination of a resonant controller in the alpha beta frame and a repetitive observer. The proposed strategy has been at first validated by means of simulation results performed in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The fault detection and ride-through algorithm has been then implemented in FPGA using LabVIEW environment and full experimental verification are performed on the prototype of the three-phase 4-leg inverter.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
